Finger pointing over damaged temple

Well, it had to happen eventually when you’re opening fire in a heritage site. A staircase and a naga (snake) statue have been damaged, apparently from rocket fire, and both parties have accused each other in causing damage to the heritage site.

The Phnom Penh Post also reports some hopeful news – that the UNESCO committee is expected to demarcate the Preah Vihear Site at the end of the year, which may put the border dispute to rest once and for all.
